'Am I really getting old? Is my judgment failing me?'
'But that can't be right. My father-in-law's judgment is still sound, and he's quite fond of Seraphina!'
"That's alright, Grandma. My daddy misses me, so I should be going back now," Alice said with a gentle smile.
Seeing this, the old lady didn't press her to stay. "Alright, then. But you must come and keep Grandma company whenever you have time!"
At that moment, the old lady had completely forgotten what Caden Reginald had told her the day before, continuing headfirst down a path of self-destruction.
"Okay, I will, Grandma," Alice said with a smile. She then bid farewell to the others and stood up to leave.
"Wait!"
Before she reached the door, a cold voice suddenly called out, making Alice's heart lurch.
Everyone turned toward the voice and saw Caden Reginald and Seraphina Ashworth walking down the stairs, hand in hand.
